Storm Damage Tree Removal

If you are concerned about a tree that has fallen or has been damaged from lightning or a storm, we recommend calling a qualified tree surgeon. Because of the many objects and live power lines that may be underneath or around a tree it is dangerous for untrained people to attempt to approach them. Tree surgeons have years of experience and can safely remove any storm damaged trees.

Handling Storm Damaged Trees

Despite the fact they’re typically considered as being strong and eternal, trees can come to be vulnerable in adverse weather such as storms and strong winds. Intense storms and very high winds have been known to decimate trees and uplift even the sturdiest and healthiest trees out of the ground, sending them smashing to the earth, or onto buildings, power lines, vehicles and neighbours’ gardens.

How many times soon after a storm have you heard about dislodged branches and storm-damaged trees blocking the road or damaging property. Aside from the inconvenience & danger it also may lead to expensive repairs.

The most difficult decision after a storm is not how to deal with the trees that are definitely down, that’s more or less simple. The tougher possibility is whether or not some of the trees still standing can be saved.

Certain trees that have been partly injured in the storm may pose a potential threat and may need to be cut down and disposed of to prevent placing property & people in danger in several months or even years to come.

Some other trees could be preserved by being pruned back, with their worst damaged parts being ‘amputated’ similar to how an operating surgeon will remove a gangrenous leg. Some other may need to get staked down with guy wires or supported with additional supports until they can re-develop the root system they have to have to stand on their own.

If a windstorm has caused trees to fall on buildings, our tree specialists can be trusted to clear away the affected trees quickly, safely and efficiently to allow the construction crews easy access to the building to start repair work on the damaged buildings and power lines.

Different Types Of Storm Damage

Every one of these sorts of problem causes a distinct prognosis for the trees’ future survival, however forming a diagnosis is a job best entrusted to a fully trained arborist. An unqualified amateur is far more going to miss a small detail that may separate one decision from another, like seeing the splinters from a crown twist but missing the slight lean that suggests that the roots also snapped.

There are generally 6 forms of storm damage that a tree can’t usually endure:

• Blowovers – this is where the entire tree falls down.
• Stem Failures – this is where the trunk of the tree splits above the earth, causing the crown to come down or to bend strongly while the bottom part continues to be standing normally.
• Root Failures – is when the root systems of the tree snap underneath the earth, leading to the tree bending or swaying noticeably.
• Branch Failures – is where several branches of the tree fall off.
• Crown Twists – is when the trunk of the tree rotates enough to split, but stays up. This occurs most frequently on trees with extremely disproportionate crowns. The entire crown essentially transforms into a weather vane in a storm, twisting to follow the wind flow in a manner in which the trunk can’t.
• Lightening Hits – When lightening strikes the tree gets burned and electrocuted, but stays up, at the moment. Lightening strikes have a lot of secondary effects like opening a large amount of surface area up to pests and vermin and massive water loss, so a tree hit by lightening is always at a much greater risk to drop even if it made it through the original storm.
